*Born in 1938 in Calvados, Michel Margueray has established himself as one of the most sensitive painters of contemporary Normandy.
A figurative painter, he has cultivated for decades an art deeply rooted in the observation of reality, which he renders with rare sincerity and a remarkable mastery of atmosphere. A landscape painter above all, he excels in depicting the changing skies, vibrant light, and harmonizing colors that animate the Normandy coast, Breton ports, the landscapes of Provence, and the canals of Venice.
His work, nourished by travel and the changing seasons, is distinguished by a quiet strength: balanced compositions, accurate perspectives, a generous palette, and an attentive eye for the life of these places. Art critic André Ruellan already hailed him in 1974 as "one of the finest and most talented painters in Lower Normandy," emphasizing the personality and sensitivity that permeate each canvas. An established artist, regularly exhibiting in Normandy and beyond, Michel Margueray continues to paint in which light remains the guiding thread, revealing the simple and authentic poetry of the landscapes he encounters.
